_- DESTACADO -LATINOAMERICANISTA RUSO
NIKOLAI LEONOV, QUE VIVIO 12 ANOS

EN MEXICO, DE LOS

HABLA A SIEMPRE!

MUCHOS PROBLEMAS DE NUESTRA AMERICA

Estimado Sr. Pagés: :
Nikolai Leénov -uno de fos principales
latinoamericanistas soviéticns de hoy, doctor
en Ciencias Historicas y hombre por lo regu-
‘dar moderado en manifestar sus sentimientos—
-S¢ pone sentimental cuando se habla de Mési-
co...
“Considero a México, hasta cierto punto,
mi segunda patria -dice-. He vivido alli doce
aos en total. Me enamoré de él a primera
. vista 'y estoy seguro de que mi carifo a este
pais no se empahara con los afios.”
Poco amigo de las entrevistas, esta vez
Nikolai ha hecho una excepcioén. Para SIEM-
“PRE! y. para mi.
Ante tudo, hablamos de fa capital tanto
3 mas que Leénov publicé hace pec GS la

cfevista-sovidtica America Latina, un extepse

‘Gnsayo sobre ella. Pido a Nikolai que diga Jo
4.9 We. & su parecer, determina la fison de
, esa ciudad.

Leénov: Cuando rememoro fa ciudad de
México e intento dilucidat en qué conjuntos
arquitectonicos de la capital mexicana esta
“mejor .reflejado el espintu de la nacién, me
vienen a las mientes, ante todo, los nucvos
monumentos. Esos en los que se ha perpetua-
do la heroica lucha de! pueblo por su indepen-
dencia politica y econdmica. Y entre ellos, en

_ +s. primer lugar, el dedicado a los Niftos He- Gg ing Sega ;
: , ; ar : 1 4 - . ' + .
oes”, Hos cuales, aunque no pudieron libri En 1968, en Ia inauguracion de la NIX Olimpix
de los norteamericanos a la ciudad. a costa de da. E

sus vidas salvaron el honor y la dignidad de la
nacién. Eso para mies el simbolo de México...
Recuerdo que el general Ridgway, verdugo
del pueblo coreano, visits México y depositd
una corona al pie del monumento. A la
mafiana siguiente la corona estaba ante la
puerta de la embajada de los BE.UU. con la
- siguiente inscripcién: “De asesinos no admiti-
mos coronas”.
Un simbolo de México es también el monu-
mento a los trabajadores del petroleo. No se
uede ver con frecuencia en un Estado capita-
Fista un monumento a obreros, y que ademas,

Leénov: Para comprender aunque no sea
mas que un poco el alma mexicana hay que
ver, por lo menus, tres cosas: la plaza del
Zécalo en la noche del 15 al 16 de septiembre,
una corrida y la plaza de Garibaldi.

En la plaza del Zécalo se percibe con
particular agudeza el halito del pasado remo-
to, de la rica y turbulenta historia del pais,

jo unas palabras que resultaron profé
ticas:. “Por lo que se ve, ni yo ni mis

Victor Manuel sucumbid en las

para mi un mandato, que yo conside-
raba indispensable cumphir.

Pregunta: ;Qué ensefianzas
sacar la humanidad, a entender de
usted, de Ja experiencia histérica de
Amftrica Centra>

Ledénov: La historia de cada pats,
aunque sea pequefio, y mds ain la de
toda una subregié6n, ¢3 aleccionadora.
Lo importante es seleccionar los pro-
blemas y acontecimientos significantes
que caractericen con mas plenitud las
peculiaridades del desarrollo histérico
de esos paises precisamente.

A mi me parece que América Cen-
tral, ante todo, da una leccién de
lucha por la unidad. Toda su historia
es la mejor confirmacién de una vieja
y sabia verdad: “La unién hace ia
fuerza”.

Al mismo tiempo, al analizar la
lucha por la unidad en América Cen-
tral, se llega a la conclusién de que la
unidad por sf misma no es un bien o
un mal. iodo depende de cn interés
de quién se realiza. En las condiciones
histéricas concretas del siglo XIX, la
lucha unionista de Francisco MorazAn
y Justo Rufino Barnos era, sin duda,
un fenémeno wrye ee, pu

también el aventurero norteamerica-
no Willian Walker, que se apoderara
de Nicaragua, lanzé asimismo la con-
signa de la unidad centroamericana:
“{Cinco o ninguna!”, pero a base del
restablecimiento de la esclavitud y de
la supeditacién absoluta de esa regién
a los Estados Unidos. Los pueblos de
América Latina rechazaron y rechaza-
r4n la unidad en tales condiciones.

Quisiera sefialar otra importante
ensefianza que se puede sacar al estu-
diar ta historia de América Central: la
importancia que tiene valorar y com-
prender a tiempo a los grandes patrio-
tas y luchadores por la libertad, apo-
yarlos cuando atin estén vivos. Por
tragica ironia de la suerte, todos los
verdaderos héroes de América Central
fueron ejecutados o asesinados por
compatnotas suyos, cuyos descendien-
tes hoy idolatran literalmente a aqué-
los. Esos héroes son hoy-la gloria y el
orgullo de las naciones. Pero como

suele acaccer con frecuencia, el reco-

nocimiento y la comprensién de sus
ideales llegaron sélo muchos afios des-
pués de haber muerto ellos. .

Pregunta: En el libro de usted se
menciona con bastante frecuencia a
los Estados Unidos. ;Qué podria decir
usted del papel de ‘os mismos en fa
historia de América Central?

Leénov: A mi entender, la nocién
mAs plena sobre la politica de los
EE.UU. en esa subregién la dan las
instrucciones redactadas por el Depar-
tamento de Estado para William Jef.
fers, el primer enviado extraordinario
de los EE.UU. en América Central. Se
decia ¢n ellas que Centroamérica ofre-
cla un interés singular Para. los
EE.UU. debido a la stuacién geogra-

Giea de da misma y als pasibslidad de

Nacia que ocupaba tan favorable

Mientras tanto, el enviado extraor-
dinario mexicano en América Central
(con residenvia en Guatemasa) eacri-
bia a México el 1 de abril de 1854 que .
los norteamericanes no ponian freno a
sus actividades y con una insolencia .
inaudita procuraban el dominio de °
todo el subcontinente, apoderane de -
dl, por lo que crecia la necesidad de
dar otro giro a las relaciones entre los
Estados his foamericanos, pues se
trataba ya de defenderse, mediante la
creacién de alianzas militares, de la -
catastrofe que les amenazaba. .

Pregunta: Por cierto, ya que se ha
tratado de México, qué influencia
cjercidé éste, a juicio de usted, en el
desarrollo del acontecer en América
Central? :

Leénov: Se dio el caso de que en
algunos periodos, bajo La presién reac-
cionaria, México actué en la regién de
comin acuerdo con Ios EE.UU. Asi
fue, por ejemplo, en los hempos de ta
jucha de Justo Rufinv Barrios por la
reunificacién de América Central
(1871-1885), Pero en general, el pape!
de México ha sido progresista. No

Recordaré asimisino que precisa-
mente a bordo de un buque de guerra

Y en los afios veinte de nuestro siglo,

routinely traced in order to givo hig indications of poople : 7 '
of particular interest, or of possible dauger to hig cover, :
For exapple, when he listed Charles and Bertha SHALL as

then and their group unless at a social function thore they .
could not be avoided. We have no desiro to have ODEXVY ;

1, The period October 1965 to Februnry 1966 was largely
devoted to building a circle of useful contacts in
the French colony and intellectual world and getting
to know the case officer. When the latter loft in
early 1966, I was introduced to my present case f z
officer, Past activity was reviewed and evaluated, . .
targets discussed and objectives clearly defined.

2, The following will give some indication of advances
made so far againat the target objectives laid out .
in HHMA-28838: a

a. French Enbassy floor plan. Under various
pretexts, numerous visite have been made to
the Enbassy. A rough diagroa is rendy vith
the occupants of wost of the offices identi-
fied. Remodeling of the building in in ..
process, Sone officora will be transferred
from one room to another, Tho basic etructure
of the building will not bse altered. , ‘

b. Contacts leading tovard tho French targot..
Those persons pane ow have 6 en mot
at lenst once during April and are deemed to
be worthy of further devolopzont for their
apparent accesa in the French coanunity. This
nugber represents only a fraction of peraona

Monograph of Nikolay Sergsyovich LEONOV

Nikolay Sergeyevich LEONOV, the Soviet official
whe visited Peru from 23 April 1969 to 17 July 1969
Q6 8 representative of the Soviet news agency NOVOSTI,
is a long-tise,firmly identified KGB officer who
eerved in Mexico during most of the period 1953-1963.
Although he was able to function effectively in his
Overt jobs as Cultural Attache and later Press Attache,
he was copsistently active in clandestine support of
Latin American revolutionary and subversive activities,
particularly relating to Guatemala. Following are ,
details of his career.

LEONGY was born 22 August 1928 in Ryazan oblast,

USSR. Hie wife, Valeriya Ivanovna, was born 28 April

1928 in Ryazan, As of 1968 the LEONOVs had one daughter,
Irina, born in 1962.

LEONOVY was first posted to the Soviet Embassy in ..
Mexico in May 1953. His initial position was secretary
to the Soviet Ambassador. In addition to administrative
duties and cultural matters, LEONOV functioned as a .

translator and interpreter, since he spoke excellent

Spanish.

Teo of LEONOV's most interesting contacts fron

his first tour in Mexico were:

b.

Fidel CASTRO, CASTRO, who was in exile in

Mexico from 1953-56, was arrested by the

Mexican police in June 1956, and a pottice——

search revealed LEONOV's calling card in

CASTRO's possession, 1 ; a
Bernardo LEHUS Mendoza. LEHUS, an important
Guatemalan Cormunist youth leader, was a close —

friend of LEONOV's dating from the period

, 1953-56, during part of which time LEMUS was

in exile in Mexico. 2) MUS, who was a friend

and former prison-mate of Raul CASTRO, allegedly
conducted liaison in Hexico City during 1955-56
between the Cuban Communist Party exiles and

the Fidel CASTRO group.

LEONOY and his wife departed Mexico City on 17 October

1956 for the USSR, where they remained until their return to

Mexico in 1961. While in the USSR, LEONOV was used for

important interpreting chores; most notably, he accompanied .

Soviet Vice Premier Anastas MIKOYAN on his trips to Mexico

&nd Cuba in November 1959 and February 1960. During the

February 1960 trip to Cuba, LEONOV first met Ricardo
MIRANDA Aldana, Guatemalan Communist and revolutionary
who was then in Cuba recovering from wounds received
ina Cuban-sponsored, Nicaraguan-led movement to over=-
throw Nicaragua's President, General Somosa. Leonov
was to have later clandestine contact with MIRANDA in
Mexico. . .

On 31 July 1961, the LEONOVs returned to Mexico.
This time, LEONOV was listed as Third Secretary and worked
as assistant to the Cultural Affairs Officer, Svyatoslav
Fedorovich KUZNETSOV. A KGB officer KUZNETSOV is, as of
this writing, once again serving in Mexico, this tise
as First Secretary of the Soviet Embassy.

During this tour of duty, LEONOV's particular res~
pons ibility for support of the Guatemalan revolutionary
effort began to emerge. In January 1962, Ricardo MIRANDA
Aldana, Guatemalan revolutionary mentioned above, passed
through Mexaco City on his way to Cuba for guerrilla
training. MIRANDA, reported to be in charge of accumu-
lating arms for the activist arm of the PGT (Guatemalan
Communist Party), brought to Mexico a message for the
Soviets. He delivered this message to the leading Guate~-
malan exile in Mexico in direct touch with the Soviets,

Victor Manuel GUTIERREZ, who passed it to his Soviet

2
Embassy Conta@t. During MIRANDA's stay in Mexico, LEONOV
met with

in October 1963 and thereafter took a leading role
in PGT/FAR guerrilla actions. As of 1965, he was

@& member of the Military Commission of the PGT and
conducted terrorist actions. He had in his posses~
sion at that time sketches of the homes of various
Guatemalan officials who were on the PGT/FAR assas—
sination list. MIRANDA was arrested in September
1965 on charges of assassination of two Guatemalan

businessmen. He apparently was released, or escaped,

. {
about mid-1966. He left Guatemala, and is believed
i

to have gone to Mexico and to have had clandestine
contact with LEONOV there in December 1966.2 MIRANDA
returned to Guatemala after spending some time in
E1 Salvador, and was killed on 3 May 1967 near Guatemala
City by unknown assailants.

In 1963, LEONOV was eaiso in clandestine contact
with a former Mexican army officer named Lorenzo
CARDENAS Barajas, who was heavily involved in the pro- '
curenent of arms for the Guatemalan revolutionaries.
CARDENAS, a fervent adherent of the revolutionary left,
had contact with Victor N. GLOTOV, another KGB officer
in the Soviet Embassy, Mexico, as well as LEONOV., LEONOV

is known to have met CARDENAS clandestinely two days

before LEONOV left for the USSR on vacation on 2] April 1963.

LEONOV is believed still to have been in contact with
5
CARDENAS as recently as March 1967. In recent years,

CARDENAS has been active in the Movimiento Latinoamericano

de Liberacion, a Latin American revolutionary organization
Zounded in Mexico in 1964 and headed by Guillermo CARNERO
Hoke, 8 Peruvian who has spent many years in exile in
Mexico, and is now back in Peru. CARDENAS’ activities :
have involved agitation among Mexican students and peasants,
which led increasing difficulties with the police, and he
Claims to have asked for asylim in Peru in 1968. 6

LEONOV and his family went on home leave to the
USSR 21 April 1963 to 20 July 1963. During this leave,
LEONOV renewed an old acquaintance with Fidel CASTRO, serving _ ‘
as CASTRO's intexpreter in the USSR in May 1963. After home
leave, LEOROY returned to Mexico, where he remained (except
for two more trips to the USSR in 1964 and 1966) until 22
Decembor 1968, when he and his family departed permanently
from Mexico. Upon his return to Mexico from home leave in
1964, LEONOV was promoted to Second Secretary and Press
Attache at the Soviet Embassy.

LEONOY, in his role as Press Attache, was energetic
and effective. Although he was mainly responsible for the
work of the Preaa Office, which was in the same building as

|

-6-

his Living quarters, he spent a great deal of time at

the Soviet Embassy proper, going out frequently for his
many meetings. He was popular among his wide contacts
among newspapermen in Mexico and his most intimate press
contact was Luis SUAREZ Lopez, a Spanish Communist journa-
list with the Marxist weekly magazine, Siempre. LEONOV
saw SUAREZ very frequently on press placements and possibly
other matters. SUAREZ has a long history of pro-Soviet
activities, is a member of the Communist front International
Orcanization of Journalists, and has traveled extensively
in the Soviet bloc, Communist China, and Cuba.

As to LEONOV’s personality, he has a pleasant, out-
going manner, is extremely intelligent, and gets along well
with both his colleagues, and his numerous outside contacts.
He is hard-working, generally accommodating to people, and
is a good conversationalist. He enjoys playing tennis,
volleyball and soccer. He also likes to hunt and fish,
and enjoys chess. In addition to excellent Spanish, he speaks
English. On the negative side, LEONOV gets along badly with
his wife; they often quarrel violently, and he neglects her
for bia numerous sports and social activities. He is also

a

intellectual inferiors, treating them quite rudely when
7, 8, 9, 10
he is in a bad mood.

' As Press Attache, LEONOV had the pretext for contact
with many peopie with whom he had apparently innocuous
relationships, but probably developed for intelligence
purposes.

4s an example, he had close contact with Victor RICO
Galan, a Spanish-born, naturalized Mexican Communist
journaliat, who has very close ties to both the Guatemalan
revolutionary movement and the Cubans. RICO was a
founding member in 1962 of the MLN, a pro—Cuban Communist
front organization, A regular writer for Siempre and
Politica magazines, RICO acted, in Spring of 1965, as
the Radio Havana representative in Mexico for coverage
of the Dominican situation. LEONOV consulted frequently
with him at. thia time, meeting in. RICO's home or in cafes.
LEONOV also established direct contact with certain
Dominican exiles through Rico. In August 1966,
RICO was arrested and imprisoned because of his leading
role in the Movimiento Revolucionerio del Pueblo, which
had been organizing an armed insurgent movement in the
Mexican countryside. This movement was reported to have
secret radio contact with Cuba. RICO was arrested ag. he

was about to board a flight to Cuba. a

active control. :
Juan REJANO Porras, Spaniard, member of the Central Con-

since at least 1965. Meetings between them were arranged
through a third person, another Spanish Communist employed
in LEONOV's Prees Office. REJANO was, as of 1968, editor
of the Czech Bulletin, published in Mexico by the Czech
Eubassy.

A particularly interesting foreign contact of

. LEONOV'as was Carlos BONILLA Sanchez, Comuunist
labor leader from Colombia. He and LEONOV, re~
portedly close friends, were in correspondence
during 1966-67. BONILLA was Presidont of the
Federacion Sindical de Trabajadores de Cundinamarca -
(FESTRAC) until November 1964, when he was removed

| because of his Communist sympathies. He visited
Cuba at the apecial invitation of Fidsl CASTRO
in November 1364, transiting Mexico on the wayn
where LEONOV was at that time. It should also be

noted that LEOXOV traveled to Lima on 23 April 19693

|

via Bogota.

LEONOV's connections with Feliciano PACHON Choconta,

Colombian Communist courier arrested in April 1968, !
have been discussed in a paper previously provided
to you, and so will mt be repeated here, ;
Although LEONOV's sphere of EGB activity obviously
broadened considerably over the years, as he gained
contacts and area knowledge; his involvement with Guatemalan

matters continued throughout his long stay in Mexico.

The LEONOVs left Mexico permanently on 22 December 1968,
and returned to the USSR.

LEONOV, during his years in Mexico, showed himself

«

to be a capable, hard-working intelligence officer, who
was able to fulfill his cover job with skill and at tie

same tine pursue his clandestine missions. It may be

dn aynnsnanneceanese eee Ute i ee  es

preaumed, on the basis of hig capacities demonstrated

in Mexico, that he will have worked effectively in his
@pparent task of setting up the Novosti news agency in
Peru, and that he will also have begun to develop contacts
@mong the Peruvian Communist Party and other syupathetic
elements with an eye to spotting and assessing prospective
agents for subsequent exploitation by the KGB reszidentura
which will inevitably function as a part of the new Soviet
Embassy.

GENERAL ODSERVATIORS: : _

1. With one exception (HGGW-4035, 2 Dec 66), the
personality and biographic report on LEONOV is based
entirely on Mexico City reporting. Much of thin appears
to be quite sensitive if passage to Peru liaison 16 in-
tended,

2. Since the report concerns a Soviet official, the
fact that the report ia@ based upon BH Division material
excluagively appears to be self-limiting and, possibly, selif-
defeating.

3. Although the writer of the report refers to its
acceptability to SB Division, there is no S85 coordinator. |

4. It would eppear that, to ackieve the desired result

‘(and we don't really know what this ia), it would not be

necessary to go into such exacting detail. A more generalized

report, following more or lees an AEASSAULT format, might

achieve the results desired by Station Lima without the pit-
falls of utilizing the sensitive material incorporated in the

present compilation. . ; : ; Sioa eta

§. Seeking approval of Station Mexico City for the
release of the total report seers to violate the concept
of Headquarters control of operational information. Would
it not be sore appropriate to ask Station's opinions only
in areas of doubt in the matter of source-sensttivity?

&. Although this dispatch waa coordinated according
to pare 2 with SB Division and the Guatemalan Desk, the first
inkling thie Branch got of the paper is when the dispatch
arrived on my desk. .

1. On 15 July after leaving a local publisher's offica
DULINDEN-11 drove Nikolay S. Leonov to 8 hotel. DULAUREL-1 who
accompanied them to the publisher’s office was left at her homs .
and DULINDEN~11 and Leonov were alone during the course of the drive. 1
Leonov proceeded to ask DULINDEN-11 varioun questions about' his
private life including his economic situation and also queried hin
about his future goals in life. DULINDEN-11 responded to. all
questions and said he enjoyed his work with DULAUREL-1 and wags :
interested in journalism and felt that be had learned quite a bit ,
in the short time he has been itnvolvedin assisting DULAUREL-1 '
with Panorama Internacional, He said that he did not work with :
DULAUREL-1 for money alone but because he saw this as an oppor- '

tunity to improve himself which would eventually lead to an iLaprove-
ment in his economic standard. DULINDEN-11 ssid that it was a
relaxed conversation, Leonov was very friendly and appeared | to be
interested in DULINDEN-— ll's goals and aspirations.

2. On 16 July DULINDEN-11 saw DULAUREL-1 ani the latter: , asked

Leonov appeared to have a genuine interest .in his future. DULAUREL-1
then told DULINDEN~-11 that previously she had a rather lengthy
conversation with Leonov about DULIXDEN-11 and told Leonov the
problems he had with the party, the accusations made against hia,

her conversations with DULINDEN-11 during this period and the
investigation she had conducted while DULINDEN-11 was under party
control. Leonov told DULAUREL-1 the fact that DULINDEN-11 was

under party control is of no significance and once again re-iterated
his general disgust with the party leadership. :
